A person who abdicates or renounces their throne, title, or position of authority.
From Latin 'abdicator', formed from 'abdicare' (to renounce) with the agent suffix '-tor' meaning 'one who does'. This is a more formal variant of 'abdicant'.
The difference between 'abdicant' and 'abdicator' is purely Latin versus English style—'abdicator' feels more formal and technical, which is why you'd see it in legal or historical documents rather than in storytelling.
